Yea the Mg"a and others likely didn't consider it a תרתי דסתרי, so I was looking for an explanation for it. I guessed there will be written on it if it was a minhag Chabad.

(Here is how the Minchas Elozer asks the question)

I've never done it or seen it done, but based on the sicha above, I've always been surprised that it's not more popular. Not often that we can eat a cookie or drink a beer and convert evil into good. :)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

I see it very often (including last night)
But in the same sicha that the Rebbe  spoke of the idea, he says not recommended to actually do it in practice...
